  • Olympic Route Network

    • Reference: 2009/0118-1
    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    In the light of Jacques Rogge's statement that the Olympic Route Network is not essential, will the ODA reconsider imposing the ORN on Londoners?

  • Living Wage (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Brian Coleman
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Mr Armitt, let us just get this straight. You approved Mr Higgins' package which is £641,000 a year, but your own package is £250,000. That is part time isn't it?

  • Risks (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Thank you, Chair. I would have thought one of the greatest risks that you actually run is the security of the site during build and, indeed, during the Games itself. Are you content that the structure, where you have got Ian Johnson now heading security, I assume within the Park? I am not sure if he has got responsibility for all the 134 sites plus the free to view Games. You have got him there. You have got the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) through Chris Allison [Assistant Commissioner, Central Operations, Metropolitan Police Service] and the public order with the responsibility...

  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Victoria Borwick
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    A couple of quick questions if I may. Could you just confirm that the vehicles operating on the Olympic Route Network will all be disability compliant? The next question is perhaps you could update us on the blue light services and what planning you will make to make sure that they adjust their route planning models because we know there is a limited amount of time and they need to get themselves organised? The final question is when would you reveal which of the ORN roads have exclusive Olympic lanes?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    On Tuesday at his press conference the Mayor said, 'The Aquatics Centre will be built on time and to budget.' Now, we are all aware that two days late is not good enough. Which budget do you think he is talking about?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Can I thank you for that and indeed welcome you to the Assembly for the first time. I am aware of both your and Mr Higgins' industrial backgrounds and I am also aware of what you inherited when you took on the role that you have got now. I am conscious that you are sorting things out rather than ploughing a field from fresh. Last Friday the Mayor in an interview said, 'Crossrail is not like the Olympics; we made a guess about the Olympics and had to work it out afterwards.' How close are you now to getting it...

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [19]

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I understand the commercial sensitivity but you will also be aware that the Aquatics Centre is perhaps foremost in Londoners' minds at the moment. It is the changing budget there which gives people concern. It erodes confidence. We know the overall budget has gone from £2.3 billion to over £9 billion, plus the costs of assembling the land, and Londoners have this lack of confidence in the figures that are being given. When we see that the Aquatics Centre has gone up from £75 million to £150 million, yet the roof size is being reduced from 35,000 square foot to...

  • Reasons for your leaving TfL (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    I would like to return to your reasons for leaving TfL early. Obviously there has been a lot of press speculation about the fact that maybe you had disagreed and fallen out with the Mayor. That would not be surprising because I would expect that you would have some disagreements over working together for that amount of time. Could you just tell us what your most significant disagreement has been with the Mayor?

  • Terms of the termination of your engagement to which TfL have agreed. (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    Would anything in that contract prevent you, for example, from revealing details of discussions between yourself and the Mayor on the reasons for you leaving?

  • Terms of the termination of your engagement to which TfL have agreed. (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2006
    Do you accept that the overall package is unprecedented in the public sector in this country, in the settlement of your leaving?
